[ NOTES ]
The Penguin (2024) is available on 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD. (Note that this release was originally titled "Season 1", but that doesn't appear on the final product; likely because this is the complete limited series.) The show, which is a Mafia drama ala The Sopranos, is highly recommended; especially for the scene-stealing Cristin Milioti as Sofia Falcone.
The Batman (2022) is available on 4K UHD/Blu-ray Combo Pack (reviewed here), Blu-ray/DVD Combo Pack, and Individual DVD.
